Dem Party Chair Talking

The loquacious John Walsh, chair of the MA Democratic Party, is next week's guest on the Left Ahead! podcast. It's kind of a follow-up to Ryan's video from the convention and my grousing here about the watered-down platform.

John's not shy and contacted me right away, by email and then by phone. We chatted about our differing perceptions of the platform and our expectations for it.

He'll be on largely to talk futures now that the convention splattered the platform with progressive addenda. We agreed to start with how the party will use community organizing for its goals.

You can catch him live Tuesday, June 9th at 2:30 p.m. Eastern here. Afterward, the show will be there, on Left Ahead! to listen to or download, or on iTunes.
